a friend who sent me this small glass bowl believed that it is Murano, though it is unmarked and unsigned. It is about 3 1/8" high, with ruffled or free form rim. Body is mottled white with leopard type spots. While there is polishing to the underside, the center is semi finished. Does anyone believe that it is Murano?
